Have you talked with the Red Shirt?

Most foreigners outside Thailand are still strong believers that Thailand main income is the Thai girls in Pattaya and the normal tourist but as we stated before it is only a few percentage of the national income. Most of Thailand revenue is in Rice and Rubber from south and northeast and that is the place for the Red Shirts and Muslim insurgents.

Many foreigners are also of the idea that only Red Shirts paid to demonstrate and the Yellow Shirts was a free movement. The truth is that Thailand has a long record of paying people for vote, demonstrate and gather. Some people even have it as an occupation to rally a few hundred people to go and demonstrate in Bangkok or elsewhere.

From what I can see when doing my twitter, many foreigners are also for the King of Thailand and they think that the Red Shirts wants to overthrow the Monarchy in Thailand. I am sure there are some real Republicans and Communists in the movement in the Red Shirts but I can assure that most Thai people have the King of Thailand of Thailand in there hearts. If anybody of the Red Shirts or anybody else would be stupid enough to attack the Palace or the King of Thailand in person you will see a swift end to their lives.

What the Red Shirts wants is a fair election and part of the money that the Bangkok elite make from the labor that the people from the Northeast provide. If you check your history books, you can see most countries have this “evolution” and in some cases like France, we had a Revolution.What is all the NorthEast people just left Bangkok, who would serve your meal or wash your clothing? Most low ranking Police and Army are also from North East Thailand and that is another problem.

It also makes me sad when the people in Bangkok hate the Red Shirts instead of going down to talk to them they condemn them and wish they die so they can go shopping and eat in Central World. As a Buddhist Country, I Thailand need to understand each other and bring peaceful solutions this problem. A way to peace is not to kill Thaksin and all the Red Shirts it will just create a new generation of haters, history have learned us that many times.
